Answer:

pH is an INTENSIVE property as it does not depend on the amount of material present. The pH of 1 ml of solution x is the same as the pH of 100 ml of solution x.

Answer:

As the pH is the measure of concentration of H+ ions and as concentration is an intensive property so pH is also an intensive property. It's intensive as it is mass independent. pH means negative log of concentration of hydroniun ions in the solution
